Ds is in reception in a private school. Love the school but it's likely to close to getting ahead of the game with state application for September.
A good school is expanding and is going from composite classes to separate year 1 so a few places will be available. We've applied but won't know until after May 23rd. They said all applications will be dated May 23rd and the over subscription criteria will apply.
We probably don't fit the criteria, it's in the next village, no siblings, no looked after child etc so I'd imagine ds would be bottom of the list.
Then someone said to me today he would be higher up because technically he doesn't have a school place (state) where others might but I just thought they would expect us to keep him in private (school isn't officially shutting yet, likely notice at Christmas).
Does anyone know?
Also handhold over the moving. Ds doesn't know, he'll be devastated and we've both finally made some friends here :-(
